@AmericanAir - your flight attendant in Aa1225 from TNT to MIA is very disrespectful. She should not be yelling to people that she would remove them if they are unhappy
3) Funding 'is a bust'. Banks ignore new biz models, angels are risk averse, the gov VC division is defunct, mixed w/ growth capital to non-growth, low-tech bizs. SOL: Gov & agencies set $$ to benefit banks, bizs & angels who invest $ in tech-enabled startups in a 5-yr horizon.
Yesterday I had a conversation about T&T’s entrep ecosystem with an foreigner, and it saddens me that I had a few positive things to say about it. Why is that, especially as I am an overly optimistic person? Will reflect on this and write my findings over the next few days.
2) It's our culture to launch a competition for development initiatives. Entrepreneurs win lots of $ to grow but rarely do. Hundreds of MM are spent by government & dev agencies on pitch competitions w/ no growth. SOL:Reduce competitions, vest funds for those who prove growth.
